research THE DISEASE SPECTRUM, EPIDEMIOLOGY, AND ETIOLOGY OF TOXIC-SHOCK SYNDROME
Toxic Shock Syndrome cases increased due to new factors, but decreased with public health measures and changes in tampon use.
research Characterization of Prostaglandin F2α Receptors in Human Eyelids
PGF2α receptors in human eyelids are found in specific parts of hair follicles, explaining eyelash changes with glaucoma treatment.
research Reflectance spectroscopy for noninvasive evaluation of hair follicle stage
Reflectance spectroscopy can noninvasively track hair growth stages by measuring skin reflectance and melanin changes.
research Adult‐onset hair loss in Chesapeake Bay retrievers: a clinical and histological study
Chesapeake Bay retrievers' hair loss is likely a breed-specific, hereditary condition linked to abnormal steroid levels and distinct skin changes.
research Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
The French Endocrine Society suggests diagnosing PCOS with two of three signs, recommends lifestyle changes and clomiphene for treatment, and calls for more research on certain treatments and tests.
research Patients with profuse hair shedding may reveal anagen hair dystrophy: a diagnostic clue of alopecia areata incognita
Some people with heavy hair shedding might actually have a hidden form of alopecia, which can be identified by specific hair changes.
research Bariatric Surgery and Its Effects on the Skin and Skin Diseases
Bariatric surgery affects skin health, causing both direct complications and changes in existing skin conditions, often related to nutritional deficiencies.
research Hair loss in elderly women
Hair loss in elderly women is often caused by various factors, including hormonal changes after menopause.
research Clinicopathologic study of 90 cases of trichofolliculoma
Trichofolliculoma is a unique benign tumor mainly affecting middle-aged adults' faces, often misdiagnosed without histopathology.
research A Mouse Model for Conditional Expression of Activated β-Catenin in Epidermal Keratinocytes
Activated β-catenin affects hair growth and skin thickness, and changes are reversible.
research General Characteristics of Hair in Eating Disorders
Eating disorders can cause various hair problems, and while hair loss in these disorders is linked to metabolic syndrome, treatment focuses on specific medications and lifestyle changes for the syndrome.
research Late-Onset Alopecia Areata: A Retrospective Cohort Study
People who get alopecia areata after age 50 usually have mild symptoms, high chances of hair regrowth, and often have other health conditions.
research Female-patterned alopecia in teenage brothers with unusual histologic features
Two teenage brothers had a rare, treatment-resistant form of female-pattern hair loss with unusual scalp changes.
research A rare case of chronic genian fistula with oral mucosal hair follicle inclusion: case report and review of the literature
Accurate diagnosis and management of rare genian fistulas require combined clinical, radiologic, and histopathologic evaluations.
research Cutaneous xanthomas with concurrent demodicosis and dermatophytosis in a cat
A cat with skin bumps and itching had high blood fats and skin infections, which improved with diet and medication changes.
research Revised 2003 consensus on diagnostic criteria and long-term health risks related to polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
The 2003 consensus updated PCOS diagnosis criteria and linked PCOS to higher risks of diabetes and heart problems, recommending lifestyle changes to lower these risks.
research Folliculin, the Product of the Birt-Hogg-Dube Tumor Suppressor Gene, Interacts with the Adherens Junction Protein p0071 to Regulate Cell-Cell Adhesion
The protein folliculin, involved in a rare disease, works with another protein to control how cells stick together and their organization, and changes in this interaction can lead to disease symptoms.
research Disorders of the Hair and Nails
The document reviews various hair and nail disorders, their causes, and treatments, emphasizing the need for proper diagnosis and the link between nail changes and systemic diseases.
research Two different trichoscopic patterns of mid-frontal scalp in patients with frontal fibrosing alopecia and clinical features of androgenetic alopecia

research Comparison of MMP1 gene expression and collagen percentage in response to polydioxanone, poly-L-lactic acid and polycaprolactone thread implantation in ageing rat skin
PDO, PLLA, and PCL threads increase collagen in ageing skin but don't change MMP1 gene expression.
research Androgenic Alopecia: Cross-Talk Between Cell Signal Transduction Pathways
Hair loss in Androgenetic alopecia (AGA) is due to altered cell sensitivity to hormones, not increased hormone levels. Hair growth periods shorten over time, causing hair to become thinner and shorter. This is linked to miscommunication between cell pathways in hair follicles. There's also a change in gene expression related to blood vessels and cell growth in balding hair follicles. The exact molecular causes of AGA are still unclear.
